00:00:00.796 --> 00:00:04.486 align:middle
>> I'll knock off the military
business pretty soon.

00:00:04.536 --> 00:00:10.356 align:middle
But I just feel like I have
to do a couple of things more.

00:00:13.656 --> 00:00:18.856 align:middle
This again goes back to the Greek --

00:00:24.446 --> 00:00:25.146 align:middle
-- Tyrtaeus [? the poet ?] --

00:00:29.186 --> 00:00:37.746 align:middle
-- then paid by the Spartans to
make marching songs for them, ok?

00:00:44.106 --> 00:00:46.666 align:middle
Self exhortation on military themes.

00:00:48.886 --> 00:00:50.116 align:middle
Courage, I say.

00:00:51.516 --> 00:01:00.896 align:middle
Best exhorting myself, I say encouraging
words the way the lame Tyrtaeus was supposed

00:01:00.976 --> 00:01:05.506 align:middle
to have been paid to say
them, making marching songs

00:01:05.576 --> 00:01:10.316 align:middle
to make whole Spartans to
march away in whole faith.

00:01:12.616 --> 00:01:16.126 align:middle
Now hear this, you sons of Hercules.

00:01:17.086 --> 00:01:19.606 align:middle
God is on our side.

00:01:20.696 --> 00:01:25.036 align:middle
So make-believe black death is white as day.

00:01:26.486 --> 00:01:31.796 align:middle
Dress up your hair for a
war, as if for girls or boys,

00:01:32.556 --> 00:01:38.646 align:middle
and throw your bodies away.
Love and your death equals joy.

00:01:40.676 --> 00:01:46.416 align:middle
But in his own crippled song
to himself, on marching lamely,

00:01:47.056 --> 00:01:51.406 align:middle
he paid himself to say go it alone, kid.

00:01:52.286 --> 00:01:58.116 align:middle
Run your own races but when they
say shit, squat and make faces.

00:02:03.596 --> 00:02:06.656 align:middle
All these men later died.

00:02:07.956 --> 00:02:09.466 align:middle
His and their fame.

00:02:11.406 --> 00:02:16.256 align:middle
His and their fame goes on
in all military routine,

00:02:17.066 --> 00:02:21.916 align:middle
while a counter song I made them
say of army verse I said and heard goes

00:02:21.916 --> 00:02:27.226 align:middle
on into the enlisted men's latrines.
